Sometimes you need to branch out at dinner time and try something different. In this case, dream up something different. It was far from perfect and needs some development to make it really work but a general success and pretty tasty. Anyway, it's something you can work with as an idea. It's just a puff pastry sheet with a tasty filling topped with sliced potato and cheese. In this one I fried up onions, garlic, leeks and smoked bacon to make a filling, topped it with sliced boiled potatoes and cheese and carefully poured over a little beaten egg and milk mixture then baked it for about 30 minutes at 200°C.

The result is something of a cross between a pie, a gratin and a fritata. A welcome break from the norm.

About...

I started this to keep a record of my favourite recipes and any successful experimentation. It’s a home-cooking blog, not gourmet. I tend not to dwell on details, preferring simple straightforward recipes. Hopefully there’s just enough info to inspire you to give it a go too.

Temperatures given are always for a fan oven in °C. Add 10-20° if using a conventional oven.

As I vary between grams and ounces depending on the recipe you may find these conversion tables useful.

Disclaimer...

Often my cookery is carried out upon inspiration from other cooks. When this is the case it will always be acknowledged either informally (I saw so-and-so do something like this on TV…) or formally (recipe from...).

Any association with or resemblance to an existing recipe when uncredited is purely coincidental.

This blog is not produced with any commercial gain in mind, but only with the intention of sharing great recipes.
